Clutch friction material all trough the clutch housing and power shift compartment stuck in bearings and everywhere.
How to get it out?
 
Of course you will be splitting it for a clutch replacement,, you can get to most of it there,, do your best to clan it,,if not the sump screen in the base of the clutch housing will clog, then oil will build up in the clutch housing pushing it into the engine and possibly blowing the timing plug out of the right side of the engine sending a stream of oil up past the engine and into the fan,,and then back on the windshield... the bit that makes it down into the lower part of the housing wont hurt much..

That's how I found out the clutch had failed.
I drained 4 five gallon pails from the clutch housing(screen had plugged)
